Screen Resolution Poll 2006

[Egg Bramhill]

We haven't had a poll on this subject for over two years, so it would be interesting to have another and compare results.

If your chosen resolutions not in the poll choose the closest.

It would be good to find out people's current resolution. I'm using 1280 x 1024 on 19" monitors on both my home computers.

i'm using 1024 by 768, i think...

[Egg Bramhill]

Do folks with TFT displays still tend to alter resolutions or stick to the resolution the screen's optomised to?

Drifter, just right click on a blank part of the screen, choose 'Properties' and in the Display Properties window choose 'Settings'. This gives you the Screen Resolution and Colour depth settings. Click 'Cancel'

[Soquili]

I personally go with the highest resolution the adapter and monitor will support with 24/32bit colour.

ok, that produced 1280 x 1024

I am mostly doing programming and always going for the largest size available from which I can attach 2 to a single graphics card.

At the moment that is 24" with 1920 x 1200.

At least for my desk thats the maximum that is useful at all. I have tried 30" which for fun for work with text and graphics, but if you play games too its simply too large to get a whole scene without moving your head left and right.

For working with programs like Xara, screens cant be too large ever I guess.

Great for games and then when you need a break you can produce graphics on it too.
